Canola oil vs olive oil. Which one is the least unhealthy to use for which applications? I was previously under the impression that olive oil was the go-to for all things except frying, but recently glanced at something which suggested canola may be best for heart health. What's the skinny?

Olive Oil. Period. Anything else would probably be from research by canola oil companies. Remind me to show you later when I can draw pictures of the chemical nature of the oils, and it will become scathingly obvious that olive is the best choice.

I would say that olive oil is much better than any other oil for cooking or frying purposes because it is free from fats . It also control cholesterol level as well . Moreover, As it is free from fats so it is for those who really want o reduce over weight . I would suggest people to use olive oil than other oils in frying and cooking .
